davedenn Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 I am atempting to export records to MS Word XP via the .mer file feature in FM7. The problem is that when I attempt to create the export file, I receive this message: "adenosine.mer" (the name of the export file) cannot be created on this disk. Use a different name, make more room on the disk, unlock it, or use a different disk." I have attempted to find the solution in the help files in FM, with no success. I am hoping that someone out there can point me in the right direction to a solution. TIA Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RalphL Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Do you have an existing file named adenosine.mer? Have you tried any of the suggested fixes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DykstrL Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 On Windows 2K or XP if you try to create the file to a folder that does not exist, you will get the same error message, which is really not helpfu at all. [in V4 users would get almost exactly the same message if they create a new filemaker file on a network or mounted drive. Maybe legacy code from version 4?] just make sure the folder exists. If you need to create a folder to save the file in, use a command line to create the folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
